Apache Axis is an implementation of the SOAP ("Simple Object Access Protocol") submission to W3C. From the draft W3C specification: SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It is an XML based protocol that consists of three parts: an envelope that defines a framework for describing what is in a message and how to process it, a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing remote procedure calls and responses. This project is a follow-on to the Apache SOAP project. Please see the Reference Library for a list of technical resources that should prove useful.

"A better way to build. Project automation is essential to the success of software projects. It should be straight-forward, easy and fun to implement. There is no one-size-fits-all process for builds. Therefore Gradle does not impose a rigid process over people. Yet we think finding and describing YOUR process is very important. And so, Gradle has the very best support for describing it. We don't believe in tools that save people from themselves. Gradle gives you all the freedom you need. Using Gradle you can create declarative, maintainable, concise and high-performance builds. "

"The Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) is an open (creative commons) REST based service specification aimed at improving/simplifying Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) system integration. A number of aspects of ALM integration are covered by OSLC ranging from Requirements Management to Automation(Build/Deploy). The OSLC Change Management (CM) spec outlines a standard for creating, modifying, and querying for change requests (tasks) from OSLC based service providers. A goal of the Mylyn project is to implement a client for OSLC-CM (see [1]). Additionally, support for both OSLC Automation and OSLC SCM are part of the Mylyn restructuring proposal: http://www.eclipse.org/project-slides/mylyn-restructuring-review.html Once these plans have solidified, we can begin to fill out the roadmaps for each specification.

"The Eclipse Modeling Project focuses on the evolution and promotion of model-based development technologies within the Eclipse community by providing a unified set of modeling frameworks, tooling, and standards implementations."

"sbt is a simple build tool for Scala projects that aims to do the basics well. It requires Java 1.5 or later. "

A set of functions and predicates (as defined by Google Collections / Guava libraries) along with a set of utility methods to help navigating and editing Eclipse EMF models. EMFPath depends on Google Guava. Guava is available as OSGi bundles from the guava-bundle project.

Eclipse provides a modeling infrastructure evolving around the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) for which offering graphical representations and editing possibilities is essential. Graphiti is an Eclipse-based graphics framework that enables easy development of state-of-the-art diagram editors for domain models.

"Scalaz is a library written in the Scala Programming Language. The intention of Scalaz is to include general functions that are not currently available in the core Scala API. The scalaz-core module depends only on the core Scala API and the core Java 2 Standard Edition API. Scalaz is released under a BSD open source licence making it compatible with the licence of the Scala project. Scalaz 6.0.1 was released in June 2011, targeting Scala 2.8.1 and 2.9.0.1. "

"The Open Data Protocol (OData) is a Web protocol for querying and updating data that provides a way to unlock this data and free it from silos that exist in applications today. OData does this by applying and building upon Web technologies such as HTTP, Atom Publishing Protocol (AtomPub) and JSON to provide access to information from a variety of applications, services, and stores. Project Info odata4j is a new open-source toolkit for building first-class OData producers and first-class OData consumers in Java. "

"Community Dashboard Framework (CDF) is a project that allows you to create friendly, powerful, fully featured dashboards on top of the Pentaho BI server. Former Pentaho dashboards had several drawbacks from a developer's point of view. The developing process was awkward, it required know-how of web technologies and programming languages, and basically it was time-consuming. CDF emerged as a need for a framework that overcame all those difficulties. The final result is a powerful framework featuring the following: . It is based on Open Source technologies. . It separates logic (JavaScript) of the presentation (HTML, CSS) . It features a life cycle with components interacting with each other . It uses AJAX . It is extensible, which gives the users a high level of customization: . Advanced users can extend the library of components. . They also can insert their own snippets of JavaScript and jQuery code. CDF can be used: . As part of a Pentaho solution. This is the most common scenario. . In a standalone mode as an alternative to the Pentaho User Console . Integrated with Portlets, PHP applications, intranet portals and even desktop applications. "

" OT/J: extreme modularity Whenever modularity gets tricky, OT/J provides just one more dimension for your architecture. With OT/J there's no excuse for any architectural workarounds.

The fabric for quality software OT/J is the fabric from which high quality software can be produced: flexible, durable, elegant. OT/J in the Wiki"

Last weekend while pondering the question "Is Scala ready for the enterprise?" I decided to write a simple Java EE 6 app entirely in Scala, without using any Java. I had three main reasons for doing this: one was just to see how easy/difficult it would be to write everything in Scala (it was easy).  Another was to document the process for others journeying down the same road (the entire project is on github).  Finally, I wanted to identify advantages of using Scala instead of Java that are specific to Java EE apps (I found several). Background The specific app I created was an adaptation of the Books example from Chapter 10 of Beginning Java™ EE 6 Platform with GlassFish™ 3. It's a simple web app that displays a list of books in a database and lets you add new books. Although it's a pretty trivial app, it does touch on several important Java EE 6 technologies: JPA 2.0, EJB 3.1 and JSF 2.0.
